Music by John Baptiste Calkin, words by Charles Wesley
To us a Child of royal birth,
Heir of the promises, is given:
Th'Invisible appears on earth--
The Son of Man, the God of heaven.
A Savior born in love supreme,
He comes our fallen souls to raise;
He comes His people to redeem
With all His plenitude of grace.
The Christ, by raptured seers foretold,
Filled with th'eternal Spirit's power,
Great Prophet, Priest and King behold,
And Lord of all the worlds adore.
